    Les Paul & Friends: He Changed The Music - EVH, Gilmour, Steve Miller, and more!

    one of my fav. videos
    my dad recorded this off of pay-per-view in 1988 on a VHS, we put it on DVD, I still watch it, a lot

    its Les Paul & Friends: He Changed the Music

    this IS NOT the whole concert, I am missing BB King, Rita Coolidge, and some more clips from the Les Paul Trio (I believe, can't remember)

    but enjoy what I have been able to dig up!

    Wow Les Paul out of all the guitarist I have ever heard IMO he is the best he was also, Steve Miller's godfather and I believe taught him to play guitar
    That is a lucky recording you have there

    Les Paul invented 8-track recording, so ibsofacto he invented the reason why we can play masters in Rock Band.

    yep, and he's the reason bands like The Beatles could become famous due to that technology, plus you know, his work with the solid-body electric guitar....

    Agreed maybe we could get some of his awesome work in RB because he was a great musician and IMO the greatest guitarists of all time
